BFP Luther Defense – Vigano Should Be Honored by Francis (not prosecuted)

Jun 22 2024 39 mins  
News this week that Tucchio Kissio, the Prefect for some new curial office erstwhile known as Doctrine and Faith, you know, the guy that wrote the “Theology of Kissing” and is trying to emulate the “porno theologians” of the 70s, as Fr. Cornelio Fabrio called them… So Smoochio has exercised the power given him by Francis to haul Vigano into court. General news rep

BFP Miracle of the Sun was an Explicit Message directed at the Enemy

Oct 25 2023 33 mins  
If you've ever wondered why the Miracle of the Sun was what Our Lady chose for the finale to Fatima, then this podcast is for you -- from the Errors of Russia and the symbols of the enemies of God, she was sending a message, Old Testament style. Even down to the Egyptian and like Moses battling Pharaoh's priests -- the Miracle of the Sun is rich with symbolism. 00:00 - Like a H

BFP – We had the Impression it Was the Holy Father — Two Popes and Curiously Acute Prophecy

Oct 23 2023 56 mins  
It is the 90s all over again - but despite the smoke of prophecy-mania afflicting us today, there are some curious prophecies from Anne Catherine Emmerich and commentary by Yves DuPont, as well as some quotes from Masonic sources in 1955 conspire to make strange explanations of the Lutheran Synodality we see making democratic "collegiality" in the Vatican today. But why is the Syn

BFP We Are Being Gamed by the Synod

Oct 25 2022 70 mins  
Last episode, we discussed game theory but never got to the point of it.  Now, we discuss that the Vatican had hired McKinsey & Co to "modernize communications".  McKinsey uses game theory to help their clients find the best path to navigate a market and uses consensus management to help companies move from point A to point B through competition and diverse market fo

BFP The Church Mess Today is Deja Vu

Sep 25 2022 53 mins  
Let's sit down and chat about this mess today, and how we've come to the end of the modernist climb and marxist normalization of the Church. The "listening church" of synodality appears to be nothing more than an enactment of Richard McBrien's Catholicism. How the shock cycle of media today seems to feed the balkanization of Catholics, the use of "defending the pope" as brown shir

BFP: Liturgical Battlefield: Are You a Victim or Combatant?

May 08 2022 51 mins  
Pope Francis is reported to have said that we should not make a battlefield of the liturgy. Because he complains of Catholics hanging on to outdated things and old ideas, it is like he is saying that people who want a united and sacred liturgy (traditionalists or trads) disrupt the purpose of liturgy... who are the real combatants? why is this deja vu? and what did Father Hardon sa

Akita and Fatima: Priests Must Be Nicodemus Today

Apr 11 2022 51 mins  
Jesus hated compromised clergy and look this week at what they did to Him. As promised last time, this episode we discuss the Third Secret of Fatima in light of the situation in the Church today. Good priests and Bishops must tow the party line (or suffer the consequences) while those under kompromat are advanced. It is like the Gospels of Palm Sunday where the people - under the p

BFP – The Consecration is Nice But Not What Our Lady Asks of Us Today

Mar 27 2022 46 mins  
This past Friday, on the Solemnity of the Annunciation, Pope Francis performed a Consecration of Russia and Ukraine to the Immaculate Heart of Mary. While this is a laudable act, is it what Our Lady Asks of us today? Looking at the second secret of Fatima itself, actual history, and the message of Akita, it appears that we are not doing what she wants... and we are paying for it. W
